Waterloo's local Programming Contests are held every term, and conducted
according to
ACM Rules with the following variances:

each entrant is a single individual, rather than a team of three

each contest is 3 hours long, rather than 5

there are 5 questions, rather than "between 6 and 8 questions"

In the fall, Waterloo's local contests are used to select teams to
represent Waterloo at the
ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest
.
All UW students are welcome - come to learn, come for fun, or come to win.
Available programming languages are Scheme, C, C++, Java, and Pascal.
You are allowed to bring notes and books.
You are not allowed any electronic aids like calculators or the Web.

Judges' dataFive of the test inputs for Problem A were retracted after the contest
because they did not satisfy the problem specification. All of the
submissions from the contest were re-tested without the retracted
test inputs. The re-testing did not change any of the judgements. All
submissions that failed on the incorrect inputs also failed in the same
way on some other correct input.
